filter f_martian { facility(kern) and match('^martian source'); };
filter f_console { level(warn) and facility(kern) and not filter(f_iptables)
or level(err) and not facility(authpriv)
and not filter(f_martian); };
destination martian { file("/var/log/martian"); };
log { source(src); filter(f_martian); destination(martian); };
I than run:
Code:
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog-ng.pid'
/var/log/messages shows:
Code:
Oct 11 18:03:50 node1 syslog-ng[2153]: Configuration reload request received, reloading configuration;
Oct 11 18:03:50 node1 syslog-ng[2153]: New configuration initialized;
Well what's not working about it? are you seeing errors? failures? Just a lack of output? What are the messages you are seeing that should be filtered?
I cannot get it to stop sending messages to /var/log/messages. But it is sending "martian source" messages to /var/log/martian. So the messages are being duplicated.
I changed:
Code:
filter f_martian { facility(kern) and match('^martian source'); };
to
Code:
filter f_martian { facility(kern) and match("martian source"); };
